The remains of a large Byzantine-era church has been found during highway construction in Israel.
The 16-meter-long (52 feet) church building has a side chapel 6.5 meters long and 3.5 meters wide, with a floor tiled in white mosaic.
A baptismal font shaped like a four-leaf clover, symbolizing the cross, is located in the northeastern corner.
